  Hey everyone! How are we doing? Hope everyone had a great week! This week was pretty awesome! Had an awesome devotional by Elder Soares! Was such an awesome experience to hear him talk directly to our mission on how we can improve our way of helping people come unto Christ!! Definitely helped me have more desire to work! Also, Elder Soares talked a lot about having Joy in the Work!! I realized that I definitely needed to improve and put more effort in being happier! I definitely can say that I truly feel a big difference! I'm so much more Happier! Why? Because helping people come closer to Jesus Christ is the best thing in the whole wide World!! Seriously, if you're feeling down, go serve someone! I promise that you'll feel a whole lot better!! I Had a great experience this last week about Trusting in the Lord; Saturday during daily planning my comp and I were both wondering where we should go to find people and we decided to pray again to the Lord to find out where we sh...

  Hey everyone! How are you doing? Hope y'all are doing well! Sorry I didn't send an email last week, was super tired. But I'll do a real quick recap of the last two weeks! Baptisms! We were blessed with the Baptisms of Maria and Mateus! Such a super awesome family and such a joy to teach! They are awesome and will be a great help to the Branch! Travel! Had to do a lot of traveling this last week for a training in Feira for District Leaders, it was 13 hours there and 13 hours back 😂 But it was really awesome and I learned a lot of things and I'm excited and reenergized to work!  That's about it for the last two weeks! It's such a blessing to be a missionary and everyday is an exciting new adventure! The Church is true!! Love you all! Com Amor, Elder Giles

  Hey everyone! How's it going? Hope everyone had an awesome week! I don't have much time today to write because I'm being transfered again! I'm going back down south but past Ilhéus all the way to Eunápolis! I'll also be a District leader! I'll be in a four man apartment for the first time which hopefully will be a blast also my district will be really small! Just me, my comp, and the other dupla that lives in the house as well😂😂 Só it'll be chill! Awesome experience: Sunday was an absolute miracle! We had  members bring three people to church which was awesome! But the crazy awesome miracle is of this irmã named Edivanete! Edivanete is such an awesome lady! 5 days she had a Dreams that we(the Missionaries) we're teaching and Baptizing her!!! Crazy right!! She came to church with one of the recent converts that she knows and it was awesome to teach her yesterday and today she is soooo excited to be Baptized next week! I'm a little sad that I won...
